According to The Sun, the church ceremony was attended by several of the show's cast members.

Froggatt had previously said that it was hard to find time to plan her wedding to Cannon, who runs his own IT company, while juggling filming commitments for the show and upcoming films Filth and Still Life.

She told People magazine: "This is what you hope for, really - you've just got to take these times and enjoy them and grasp them by the horns and go with it because there will be quiet times again in the future. But I'm enjoying every minute of it at the moment."

She also revealed to the magazine that the cast of Downton Abbey "get on like a house on fire" off-screen.

The actress added: "There's definitely been a few nights on the town with a bit of dancing involved."
